It didn't come as a surprise that Nevea would offer to create ice constructs. She was the daughter of the kce goddess after all, and if she could make her icy structures radiate a chilling aura, it would definitely help in slowing creatures down and maybe even dissuade them from getting too close."It's a good start," Seth responded as he crossed his arms. "I can make your structures more effective by merging them with my own crystal formations, which other than increasing the ice's sturdiness, can strengthen the chilling energy that seems to emanate from most of your creations."
Nevea thought about this for just a few moments, before nodding to confirm that that would, in fact, work. Why it took her more than one moment to process would never be adequately explained, which was a bother, but a trifling one. "Wonderful; that's that then," she said, with a tone of finality on the matter. She looked over Seth for a glancing moment, before turning her thoughts to the next voice.

Michael had stepped outside for a smoke when he first felt the girls presence. He then looked around to see how many kids whre still up and he decided to walk around and see who was on gaurd duty. He found James at his cabin and told him if he couldn't find sleep he should go help the zeus cabin with there perimeter checks. That's when he heard the small group of campers now talking to the girl... Michael couldn't say what it was but he didn't quite trust her, " a party eh? Isn't it a bit late for that? I mean we have 6 hoursuntil we go after this thing." He said looking at the group lit cigarette in hand.
Nevea turned toward the new voice, and registered two things. First, he had a cigarette in hand. Second, if the cigarette were in his mouth, she knew that it would make him look terribly ugly. It was an unfortunate part of being a cigarette. You naturally belied the true nature of your owner's appearance. Besides that, you also unpleasantly changed your owner's appearance for the worse.
She groaned inwardly, but kept her smile. "I think you might have misunderstood the statement," she said, a slight seethe in her tone that only whom the sentence was directed at would hear. She had a knack for that. She would have made a sneering remark about the sad life of the cigarette, but she chose to hold it back for the moment.

After a few more exchanges amongst other campers in what they could do to secure the borders, some other halfblood named Lucas suggested they have some sort of parting party. Seth shook his head.
"A party? Really? Why don't we focus on the more important matters instead of trying to forget about them with useless celebrations?"
Nevea frowned at this. Was it they who were misunderstanding, or her? She thought back to what had been said and realised that she had completely missed what the speaker had meant, in a moment which others would quite coarsely call a "brain fart". Disgusting. "Hmm," she mused. "It seems that it was I who misunderstood the statement. My apologies."
